The day-long event will bring opportunity to interact with domain experts and provide exposure to various UA tools available for developers. A ‘Coding-Challenge’ will also be organized as part of the workshop and the winners will get exciting prizes.

The English language is mostly dominating the internet for Indian Users & even if you are browsing the Internet in Hindi, Bengali or any other local language, the website address or URL is still registered in English. This workshop aims to promote the use of
Indian language as website URL’s & become Universal Acceptance (UA) compliant.

For those unaware, UA is the foundational requirement to get multilingual internet in which users around the world can navigate entirely in a language of their choice. UA is the concept of removing all technical barriers that might hinder a user from accessing
any URL/website in any top level domain from any web browser, e-mail client or other internet application on a connected device. This will also allow e-mail address in local languages as well.

The objective is to reach out to the internet businesses, developers & Start-up community to create awareness about the criticality of Universal acceptance & the technical solutions being developed.
